Nazareth Baptist Church
Zulu religious movement founded by Isaiah Shembe
The Nazareth Baptist Church (Alternatively called "The Nazarite Church" "iBandla lamaNazaretha") is the second largest African initiated church based in South Africa, founded in 1910.[1]
It reveres Shembe as a prophet sent by God to restore the teachings of Moses, the prophets, and Jesus.
Members are Sabbath-observers and avoid pork, smoking, and premarital sex.[2]
It was divided into two groups after the 1976 death of Johannes Galilee Shembe. The larger group was led by Bishop Amos Shembe until his death in 1995, while Rev.
Londa Shembe led the smaller group.[3]
As of 2009, it was divided into three factions in KwaZulu-Natal and one in Gauteng.[4]
The religion uses leopard skins as part of their ceremonies, which some activists are trying to stop or replace with synthetic leopard skin.[5]
